From a mere mortal to the Body Refining Stage, it was also an elevation in martial arts realm.

The number of entries Chen Yi could equip, as well as the probability of each quality entry, increased accordingly!

[Name: Chen Yi]

[Realm: Body Refining Stage 3]

[Technique: Wild Bull Strength (Low-rank, Beginner)]

[Equipped Entries (3/5): Simulator [Colorful], Developed Deltoids [White], Hunger Resistance [White]]

[Acquired Entries (80): Serious Punch [Green], Hard Work Pays Off [Green], Luckier with Age [Green], Low-grade Aptitude [Green]...]

[Current Probability for Each Quality Entry:]

[White Common 89%, Green Rare 9%, Purple Epic 1%, Gold Legendary 0.99%, Prism Mythical 0.01%]

A whole bunch of entries appeared at once.

At first glance, the majority of white entries seemed useless.

In reality, they were indeed not very useful.

But at least each had a unique effect, which might come in handy in certain situations.

Chen Yi could now equip five entries.

He sorted the entries by quality.

Then he equipped "Simulator," "Low-grade Aptitude," "Serious Punch," "Hard Work Pays Off," and "Beast-like Pain Sensation."

Chen Yi was eager to know how to activate the next simulation.

With a thought, the Simulator entry displayed a text prompt for him.

[Simulation cooling down, one year remaining.]

[You can choose to complete the following guide task to gain a simulation opportunity directly.]

[Guide Task: If You Can't Beat Them, Join Them!]

[Show your martial prowess, infiltrate the Black Stone Gang, and look for a chance to escape!]

[Rewards:]

[1. Simulation Count +1;]

[2. Premium Entry Draw *1 (Premium entries may not be high quality, but they always have a positive effect);]

[3. Low-rank Spiritual Weapon: Flame Iron Greatsword.]

"The Mythical entry is indeed a cheat, getting a new simulation also comes with rewards."

The cooldown was too long, and Chen Yi didn't want to wait.

Moreover, the guide task's content suited his current situation.

There were also martial artists in the Black Stone Gang.

If he tried to escape by jumping into the river now, those martial artists might chase him by boat, and Chen Yi might not be able to get away.

Unless he sacrificed Da Chun again.

Besides, Chen Yi had already decided to leave with Da Chun.

After all, he was his lifesaver.

Counting the incidents in the simulation, Da Chun had saved him twice.

Ignoring him would be too cold-hearted.

"Pretend to join the Black Stone Gang, then find the right moment to leave with Da Chun, that's the plan!"

With this thought, Chen Yi acted immediately.

"Bang!!"

He flipped the dirty bowl filled with thin porridge onto the ground.

"Damn it! Every day it's steamed buns with thin porridge! And still not enough to eat! Even a scholar can't survive on this, let alone us laborers!"

Chen Yi complained loudly.

The surrounding workers were stunned, their eyes wide open.

"Has Chen Yi gone mad?"

"Does he want to be whipped to death?"

"Does he enjoy being whipped, causing trouble on purpose?"

"Oh... I've heard some people are into that kind of thing."

The commotion caused by Chen Yi caught the overseers' attention.

"Chen Yi! What do you think you're doing!"

Before the words were out, Da Chun also smashed his bowl.

"Bang!!"

"Da Chun! What are you doing!!"

Da Chun grinned.

We are "pawread dot com", find us on google.

"I don't know what I'm doing!! But I just really want to smash a bowl!!"

"You idiot!"

An overseer whipped Da Chun aside.

Then he strode towards Chen Yi, swinging a whip fiercely.

"Causing trouble! Haven't had enough of the whip, huh! Asking for a beating!"

The whip cracked through the air.

The laborers, terrified of being beaten, flinched back even though they weren't the ones being hit.

In contrast, Chen Yi, who was being targeted, stood firm, staring straight at the bully.

Supervising a group of laborers who couldn't even eat their fill didn't require martial artists.

These whip-wielding overseers were just slightly stronger bullies.

"Bang!!"

Chen Yi raised his hand and caught the incoming whip steadily.

The overseer thought Chen Yi had just gotten lucky, accidentally catching it.

He was about to pull the whip back, only to find it had been yanked away by Chen Yi.

"Give me the whip! Are you trying to rebel?!"

Chen Yi sneered, whipping the ground with more force than the overseer ever could!

The sound of the whip striking the wooden planks was deafening, shattering the sturdy dock boards on the spot!

Everyone on the dock snapped to attention, looking over.

"Rebel? You think you deserve to use that word? Do you really think you're some kind of tyrant?!"

Chen Yi showed no mercy, using the strength of a Body Refining Stage 3 martial artist to lash the overseer.

The overseer's skin split open, the wound deep enough to see bone!

"Ugh!!"

The whip's force penetrated his torso, injuring his organs, sending the overseer flying, spitting blood, into the rushing Qing River.

The other overseers, seeing this, immediately surrounded him.

"Chen Yi! You dare hit an overseer? Do you want to die? Seize him!"

These were all mere mortals.

They only had numbers.

Their whips didn't hurt Chen Yi much.

On one hand, his blood energy was high, his physical strength surpassing that of ordinary people.

On the other hand, the "Beast-like Pain Sensation" entry dulled his pain.

Chen Yi charged through their encirclement, unstoppable!

He used the whip as a rope, choking an overseer's neck, flipping him over his shoulder into the river.

Then, with a sliding tackle, he knocked down three or four more, tying them together with the whip and tossing them into the river!

The last overseer, seeing this, trembled.

"You, you're so skilled?"

In truth, it wasn't about skill.

It was purely about high stats!

Fast enough!

Strong enough!

Tough enough!

Taking on many was a piece of cake!

Besides, the overseers' weapons were just whips, not blades or swords.

Chen Yi stomped hard on the floor, causing the other end to spring up.

The last overseer was catapulted into the air like a seesaw, then fell into the river in a sorry state.

The laborers were utterly stunned, mouths agape wide enough to swallow an egg.

The overseers who usually beat them to tears were all knocked into the water by Chen Yi in no time!

Now they were all splashing in the river, crying for help!

Foreman Wang Qiang looked at the overseers in the river, sneering.

"Well, Chen Yi, you do have some skills. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't respect authority!"

He was a martial artist.

But Chen Yi knew he was only at Body Refining Stage 1.

Each stage in the Body Refining realm doubled the blood energy of the previous stage.

Even if Wang Qiang knew martial arts, how much power could Body Refining Stage 1 exert?

In low-level PK, it's all about stats, no fancy tricks needed!

Wang Qiang swapped his whip for a pair of small hammers.

These could easily break bones when struck on a person.

Wang Qiang thought that as a martial artist, dealing with a weak laborer would be a breeze.

But as soon as the fight started, the pair of hammers ended up in Chen Yi's hands.

"What just happened..."

He hadn't even seen what happened!

Looking at Chen Yi, who was now holding the hammers and smiling faintly, Wang Qiang panicked!
